Art 11

Homework #1
            Art is to me like a way of expressing yourself, meaning your way of being, emotions and creativity and criticism is to me a way of judge our good and bad qualities.
This is my first time taking an art class in college, I do agree with the author of Seeing Out Loud article by Saltz. There is a quote in the article that said “Art is a way of thinking a way of knowing yourself “. I believe is true because I feel that if I learn how to create art, I will be able to create what is inside me, meaning how I feel about something and is also easier to express yourself through art instead of communication through other individuals.
Art for me is music I believe that musician express their art through their lyric, voices and rhythm. The differences between Saltz art and my prefer art is that my art is more auditory and Saltz art is more visual. The similarity is that we both have a common goal to reach emotion through our art. I love the experience of listening to the art of music is like to find another way to relax my mind. I felt an inner peace that grabs me feel joy in my soul.
There is also another quote in the article by the author Jerry Saltz that said “Having an eye in criticism is as important as having an ear in music”. I agree with this quote because being able to see or listening to something is having an understanding and interpretation of it. I believe criticism could be good and bad. It could be good because it can help you better your creativity but it could also be bad because it could affect your motive in life.
Overall I believe that art reaches us in many ways that can have an impact in our life good or bad depending on the individual’s acceptance. This article has tough me how to be a better critic when it comes to understanding art.
